I am a fully Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland, Washington, DC, Michigan, and a TLHT Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. As well as a Board Approved Counselor Supervisor (ACS) in Maryland and a Certified Dialectical Behavioral Therapist (C-DBT). With over eight years of experience in the field of mental health, I am open to working with children, teens, adults, and their families through various presenting concerns.
What you can expect from our first session ... We may meet for a 15 minute consultation session to determine if we are the right fit to begin your treatment. Every individual has the capacity to achieve a life worth living. I strive to empower my clients to develop the skills & resources they need to succeed. My experience has provided me with the knowledge, expertise, & empathy necessary to support clients. Together, we will work on strategies that allow addressing the root causes of difficulties.
One moment that solidified my desire to become a therapist was seeing firsthand how many youths feelings were dismissed and their behaviors unfairly accused by adults in their lives. I knew I wanted to be a listening ear and advocate for these individuals, and has been committed to that goal ever since. My expertise lies in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Client-Centered therapy.
A bit about my approach to therapy... As a practitioner, I focus on providing individual Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), centered on the belief that "You are the expert on you." I am a dedicated & passionate professional who specializes in working with at-risk and transitional age youth, as well as members of the LGBTQIA community between the ages of 12-30+.
